DeCARB's Blockchain & DAO Revolutionize Carbon Credits and Climate Change Fight
A decentralized, transparent and cost-effective platform for carbon trading that reduces your carbon footprint while benefiting society and the environment.
Overview
The Global Climate Crisis
The world is facing a very critical and time-sensitive crisis - the release of toxic substances and gases like carbon dioxide and methane into the environment by industries. These gases contribute to climate change by trapping solar energy, leading to rising sea levels, increased temperatures, and the threat of extinction for many animal species.
The economic consequences of climate change are also significant, with reduced agricultural yields, worker productivity, and industrial production. Addressing this urgent problem requires an out-of-the-box approach to implement sustainable practices, drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and quickly transition to renewable energy sources.
Toxic substances & gases, such as carbon dioxide & methane, are burnt and released into the environment by industries.
Methane and carbon dioxide directly impact the planet's temperature by absorbing solar energy.
Global warming threatens extinction, rising seas, temperature, catastrophes, and lower worker productivity.
Context
Entry of Voluntary Carbon Markets
This innovative initiative allows anyone - from oil and gas corporations to local truck companies and even private individuals - to offset their carbon emissions.
These VCCs are stored in a personalized account in a registry owned by the standard. The developer can retire the credits or sell them to another entity. However, VCCs issued by one standard and stored in its registry cannot be transferred to a registry of a different standard.
However, the lack of standardization and transparency in carbon credit tracking, verifiability, accounting, and reporting has created concerns regarding the quality of carbon assets in these markets. Issues such as double counting and fraud have also raised questions about the effectiveness of traditional MRV methods.
The market is highly fragmented, with a lack of standardization in tracking and reporting carbon credits - presenting a major challenge for businesses and individuals looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
Challenges
Challenges Faced by VCMs
Insufficient Governance
- No governance body for the voluntary carbon market.
- Standards, which set criteria for project certification, are private entities.
- Each standard has its own eligibility criteria and registry access rules.
Lacks Standardization
- VCCs are named differently by different standards.
- No unified definition or legal classification of VCCs across the European Union.
Distrust
- Lack of governance and unified standards makes it difficult to verify the quality of carbon credits.
- Carbon credits cannot be compared easily as each standard has its own qualification criteria.
